Excellent sleep last night and at the gym a bit after 5A.

Had a good workout. Did not take any rest just kept going, working my shoulder flyes into the circuit and then catching my elbow exercises after the circuit.

Tuesday
Core Circuit – Repeat 3 times with no rest, 15 – 20 lb – 12 each x 4 SH Flyes.
Circuit – Repeat for 5 total sets
Dumbbell Push Press – 50 lb Dumbbells – 11 reps
Rear Lunge to Row (Set at top position)
55 lbs – 10 reps each side – keep core tight!!!!!

Because the gym was closed Monday my workouts are a day off which I think will be a good thing.

Kettlebell class tonight was KILLER.

Had a new guy Ed join the class so now it is Brad, Art, Ed, myself and Jim the instructor. What I really like about this class is everyone is working as hard as they can and we all encourage each other. That friendly competition and encouragement really adds to the class experience. On top of that you can tell that Jim just loves teaching these classes.

I did my best to capture what we did. There were a couple of rests in there but few and far between.

Fight Gone Bad 5
What is a baby boomer?
People born between (and including) 1946 and 1964. After American soldiers returned home from World War II in1946, the United States experienced an explosion of births (hence the name baby boom) that continued for the next 18 years, when the birth rate began to drop. In 1964, baby boomers represented 40% of the population, which means that more than one third of the population was under 19 years of age. In the 1990s, approximately 76 million people in the United States were born in the baby boom years, representing approximately 29% of the country's population. Since baby boomers make up such a sizable portion of the consuming public, their spending habits and lifestyles have a powerful influence on the economy.
